Golfers are a special breed. They endure bad weather, early wake up calls, great expense, and "interesting" clothing to engage in their favorite sport. This book contains Chicken Soup's 101 best stories about golfers, golfing, and other sports. Chicken Soup's approach to sports books has always been unique -- professional and amateur athletes contribute stories from the heart, yielding a book about the human side of golf and other sports, not a how-to book.
